IMPROVEMENT IN DOOR-HANGERS.

Specilication forming part of Letters Patent No. 207,765, datedSeptember 3, 1878; application lcd September 7, 1877.

To all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that we, SAMUEL H. MOORE and EDWARD Y. MOORE, of Chicago, inthe vented certain new and useful Improvements in Barn-Door Han gers andSheaves, and we do hereby declare th at thefollowin g is afull, clear,and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilledin the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, referencebeing hadto the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of referencemarked thereon, wich form a part of this specication.

This invention relates to hangers an d sheaves for sliding doors, and itconsists in the construction and operation of parts, as will behereinafter more fully set forth and claimed.

In the annexed drawing, to which reference is made, and which fullyillustrates the invention, Figure l is a front view of a hanger forsliding doors embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal verticalsection of the same. Fig. 3 is a section showing the invention appliedto sheaves for sliding doors.

A represents the ordinary strap for hangers for sliding doors, formed atits upper end with the cap B, constructed in any suitable manner.

Within this cap, upon an axis or bolt, a, is placed a double wheel, C O,formed of a een` tral hub, having near each end a circular disk, asshown, and around the periphery oi' each disk is an outwardly-projectingange, b, said iianges forming part of the wheel.

D represents awheel having its rim grooved to fit the track or rail, andwhich is provided with projecting hubs or trunnions (l (l. rIhese hubsor trunnions have their bearin gs against the peripheries of the doublewheel C C, and they are held in place laterally and from below by meansof semicircular llanges or sockets 7L 7L cast or otherwise formed on orattached to the inside of the cap B.

The two disks of the double wheel straddle the grooved wheel D, whichthus works inside of said double wheel.

In Fig. 3 this invention is shown as applied to shea-ves for slidingdoors, in which case, instead of the cap B, a frame or side plates, G,are used. Instead of a doublewheel, O O, as shown, two single wheels maybe used for the same purpose.

Having thus fully described the invention, what is claimed as new, anddesired to be secured by Letters Patent, is

rEhe combination of the grooved wheel D, with its hubs or trunnions d d,the double wheel C O, turning upon an axis, a, and the flanges orsockets /L h, on the inside of the cap or frame which holds the partstogether, substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
